Why are so many mangaka and anime creators doing NFT's now? Are they just simply ignorant because everyone in the west has already realised they're a scam.

Japanese are always few years late when it comes to catching up with western trend.

Seems more worthwhile than the monkey faces at least

Gacha exists big in Japan. I could see this thriving in the same vain.

And? If the people from the east think that NFTs are worth something then they are worth something.
As long as they don't realize it's worthless it will make money

Who the fuck are you quoting?

At the end of the day, NFT's are just the digital equivilent of this shit. Japan has always been big on collectables of confusing value

The greentext indicates he's pointing out an implication

They're hungry and you keep pirating their works

Magic the Gathering is old and Western but it's the exact same shit, it's hardly just a Japanese thing.

NFTs make sense when they are used simply for donations and fundraising. Your average mangaka/anime creator is unfortunately broke enough that they do need donations to survive. A big name mangaka selling NFTs is much more difficult to justify.
Jose Green
NFTs are a scam through and through.

Except trading cards have demand. Nobody will care about NFT's in ten years. It's just another crypto ponzi scheme.
Kayden Hughes
noticed that too; there's like usually at least a 3 year lag but when they do get into it they add some interesting contributions.
Landon Murphy
Nobody will care about randomly generated monkey faces based on templates.
People will continue to care about bragging rights to popular art pieces, even if their currently highly inflated values drop.
Adrian Clark
Probably pays better.

the japanese don't pay attention to the west, so all the outrage about NFTs passed them by without notice
won't help them against the scammers and thieves, though. You gotta be pretty stupid to do anything with opensea, just a couple of weeks after they got hacked and millions of assets got stolen

Difference is you will always own the card physically. If the servers the NTF image is hosted on goes poof, then you own a link to a dead url.

Japan is always late. They were late to start using them when everybody thought they'd ignored them. I'd bet by this same time in 2023, you won't hear about it from them again or at least not as much like now in the West
